Fonterra HQ slimed by Greenpeace

There’s a nitrate crisis in rural New Zealand and that crisis starts right here at Fonterra HQ. It’s easy for Fonterra executives in their shiny offices to ignore the growing nitrate crisis that they have caused in rural New Zealand, so we’ve brought the crisis to their front door.
The solution
We are experiencing a nitrate crisis. It’s time for Fonterra to act by reducing the size of their dairy herd immediately. There can be no more dairy expansions.
